Condensation

Asked by Dillon Feb 12, 2016 at 01:24 PM about the 1988 Ford F-150 XLT Standard Cab SB

Question type: Car Customization

I have a 1988 Ford F-150 with the bulletproof 300
straight 6 in it I have been checking my oil a lot
because I noticed I had some moisture in it I
changed the oil as soon as I noticed this and ran it
haven't noticed anything for about 2 weeks so I do
not think this is a head gasket problem because I
think I would have noticed something within 2
weeks of daily driveing but I just checked it and it
was milky I believe I have a case of condensation in
the engine how do I or even condensation? Again it
is my daily driver so I do drive it short distances and
turn it off

Driving the car further to fully warm up the engine will help reduce condensation. Make sure the PCV is working properly too.
